There were a lot of comments, but no one actually recommended a pain managemnt specialist in the area (Orlando or Ocala are also fine). Does anyone have one. I desperately need to see someone.

I go to Dr. Pannamaneni and have for several years. Florida is by no means the only state that does not allow refilling out of state prescriptions for opiate type drugs. Florida law is very strong and restrictive for a reason. It would probably be best to try and develop a relationship with a Dr here as well as where you live the rest of the year. Make an appointment as a new patient, wait to discuss your prescription issues until that appointment and have a copy of your recent, several months history from you other Dr and see how that works out.
